At the beginning the use of ultrasound (US) to control algae and biofouling has focused on high-power US causing cavitation; however, due to the potential damage to non-target organisms including marine mammals and human divers, high-power US causing cavitation are not used anymore for algae control in natural environment. Current ultrasonic algae control devices use low-power and thus control algae and biofouling by utilising resonance frequencies and the sound pressure caused by a sound wave propagating through a water column. There are only few studies existing on the effect of US on non-target organisms with incomplete information on wavelengths and intensities of US devices. However, we can conclude that non-cavitation US devices used to control algae and reduce biofouling had no adverse health effects on studied fish species with no feeding and behaviour changes noticed. Caution should be taken when installingUS devices in marine locations since they may interfere with communication between sea mammals or may cause adverse effects on fish from subfamily Alosinae, the only known fish able to detect US. The studies dealing with non-cavitation US used to control algae and biofouling on non-target zooplankton have conflicting results from high mortality to no evident effects. Therefore, caution should be taken when using US for counteract algal growth in ponds or lakes, especially in terms of zooplankton and natural balance maintenance.","PeriodicalId":121848,"journal":{"name":"Acta Biologica Slovenica","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121496506","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Enakonožci Porcellio scaber so predstavniki kopenskih rakov, podobno kot tudi druge skupine rakov pa imajo razvito naravno oziroma prirojeno imunost, ki jo tvorijo imunske celice ali hemociti ter humoralne komponente. Opisali smo tri različne tipe hemocitov, ki se nahajajo v hemolimfi: semigranularne (povprečno 65 %), granularne (17 %) in hialine (18 %). Podobno veliki semigranulociti (premer 11,2 ± 0,4 µm) in granulociti (premer 12,0 ± 0,3 µm) so ovalno do okrogle oblike, razlikujejo pa se v gostoti citoplazemskih granul, ki pri granulocitih prevladujejo. Okrogli hialinociti so manjši (8,1 ± 0,3 µm) in brez granul. Pri slednjih smo identificirali dva podtipa, pri čemer domnevamo, da podtip 1 z velikim in okroglim jedrom ter prevladujočim evkromatinom ustreza lastnostim zarodnih celic. Povprečna gostota prostih hemocitov v hemolimfi P. scaber je 3,50 ± 0.19 x 106 celic/mL. Poleg metod za merjenje celičnihkomponent smo uspešno vpeljali metode za merjenje humoralnih komponent, kot so: fenol oksidazi podobna aktivnost, koncentracija dušikovega oksida ter aktivnosti antioksidativnih encimov in alfa-2 makroglobulina. V primeru okužbe P. scaber z bakterijo (Rhabdochlamydia porcellionis) smo dokazali aktivacijo celičnega imunskega odziva z izrazito tvorbo nodulov s prevladujočim deležem semigranulocitov.

This study examines some morphological, biochemical, and physiological traits that may affect the reflectance of the bark of 1-year-old twigs of different shrubs: Corylus avellana, Rosa canina, Ligustrum vulgare, Sambucus nigra, Cornus sericea var. flaviramea, and Viburnum lantana. High variability was seen across these species for morphological, biochemical, and physiological traits, except for photochemical efficiency of photosystem II. The bark spectral signatures differed significantly across these species. The reflectance peak for C. sericea var. flaviramea was in red, for C. avellana in green, and the other species showed a wide peak from green to red light. Redundancy analysis revealed that UV-B–absorbing substances and anthocyanin content, along with outer and inner bark thickness, together explained 61% of the reflectance spectra variability. Outer bark thickness was important for reflectance in UV, violet, and blue, while anthocyanins were important for reflectance in green and yellow. Chlorophyll b was negatively related to the reflectance of visible light. This study revealed great importance of biochemical traits for explaining bark reflectance.

In the same vein, there were fewer tree species in the class of higher diameter and height than there were in lower class. There were also more trees in the co-dominant and intermediate classes than in the dominant and suppressed layers. The lack of emergence in the plantation reflected the past disturbance of the ecosystem. Most of the tree growth variables were significantly different in different canopy layers in the study area. Based on the evaluation models, the three functions investigated for tree crown ratio modeling gaveconstant and reliable results in all canopy layers considering their indices. Especially, Chapman-Richard and exponential functions gave consistent trends and good fits for crown ratio models. It is recommended to put strict measures in place to avert any level of illegalities that may likely disrupt the delicate equilibrium of the ecosystem.

We researched functional traits in the alpine plant common rockrose Helianthemum nummularium subsp. grandiflorum growing under ambient UV-B and reduced UV-B radiation at different altitudes (1600 and 2000 m a.s.l.) of mount Vogel in the Slovenian Alps. Leaf anatomy, pigments and optical properties were investigated at the beginning and at the end of the growing season. Plants showed high constitutive UV-absorbing compounds content (UV-AC) throughout the season. Most leaf thickness parameters were not altered according to UV and altitude conditions. Leaves did not transmit any UV spectrum, in agreement with high UV-AC. High photosynthetic spectrum transmittance at alpine altitudes was due to complex biochemical and anatomical responses to these conditions, rather than to UV radiation. Unchanged chlorophyll content of H. nummularium could be related to shrub life form, where leaves shade out high UV and PAR irradiance as well as contribute to lower leaf temperature. This study shows the complexity of alpine plant response, wherespecific characteristics of plant species should not be overlooked.","PeriodicalId":121848,"journal":{"name":"Acta Biologica Slovenica","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122985354","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since bark of woody plants contains a layer of chlorenchyma, which can harvest transmitted light and perform photosynthesis, we also measured bark potential photochemical efficiency of photosystem II. The values of the latter parameter decreased during the research period, ranging from 0.77 in September to 0.22 in February. This could be attributed to low temperatures. The shapes of the bark reflectance curves were similar between the four samplings, with a peak in red and pronounced reflectance in the near-infrared spectrum. However, the level of reflectance differed between the four samplings. Regarding the time of the season, we obtained the most pronounced changes in the green, yellow, and red reflectance spectra. Light reflectance in these regions was positively related with chlorophyll b and carotenoid contents, while it was negatively related with anthocyanins and UV-B–absorbing substances. Transmittance spectra showed less variability between the four samplings. Regarding the studied pigments, the most pronounced changes were obtained for anthocyanin and UV-B–absorbing substances contents, which decreased in accordance with decreasing environmental temperatures. On the contrary, the level of photosynthetic pigments remained high, thus enabling undisturbed primary metabolism.","PeriodicalId":121848,"journal":{"name":"Acta Biologica Slovenica","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114795333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The methanol extract showed stronger inhibition than the ethanol and acetone ones at all three concentrations. All organic extracts showed a similar antifungal activity against F. poae as a broad-spectrum fungicide azoxystrobin. We tested the effects of stinkwoth extracts on the germination of radish seeds. The methanol extract delayed the germination of the radish seeds during the first 24 hours, but thereafter all three organic extracts had a comparable germination rate as the control seeds.

Genotyping performance of 413 samples collected in a pilot study in southern Slovenia was evaluated, andstatistical modelling was used to control confounding between pre- dictor variables and to quantify their specific effects ongenotyping success. The best predictors of genotyping success were subjectively estimated scat age, sampling month, and contents of ascat. Even when the other confounded variables were controlled for, genotyping success dropped rapidly with the age estimate, from 89% (82-94%) for 0-day scats to 33% (19-52%) for scats estimated to be 5 days old. Sampling month was also an important predictor, and samples collected during the bear hyperphagia period in late summer/autumn performed considerably better (90%,78-96%) than the samples collected in spring / early summer (66%, 57-74%). This effect was stronger for fresh than for older samples. Effects of different food types were also considerable, but less important for practical use. Since noninvasive genetic sampling already became the key method for surveying wild populations of many species, efficiency of studies is becoming increasingly important. Understanding the effect of the month of sampling allows the field season to be timed for maximum genotyping success, while subjective scat age provides a useful metric that indicates a sample’s viability for genotyping, allowing for prioritization of samples and culling of non-viable samples before resources are wasted for their analysis. This provides higher useful data yields per invested resources and may ultimately lead to better study results.","PeriodicalId":121848,"journal":{"name":"Acta Biologica Slovenica","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129361139","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
